Hello ATXHS,
About three years ago I learned about laser cutting on the Epilog 60w assuming its still there.
I purchased my own laser cutter about two years ago. Recently I just don't have time to do projects and it just sits there in my workshop.
I live in Wimberley Texas on Lone man creek. Im offering for trade the opportunity to use a larger laser and even kayak on the creek in the back yard.
The laser is in a separate workshop. Im typically in my office near by on the ranch.
The laser is 900mm x 1000mm and is about 125watts last measured a year ago. The computer is very old but has internet, inkscape, autocad 2007 and lasercad the software for the machine. I have three lenses but one is damaged. I have three workstations that I intend to use for the machine but I literally just don't always have the time/focus to install the drivers on the new machines. I work from home but travel often. My family and I live on the property so were always working on something and can help with questions etc.
I am in need of services for general computer knowledge, engineering, networking, graphics editing etc.
All of my needs are what I would call basic. For example I write many designs reports and could use someone for half a day to work on the graphic formatting etc. Also general website programming development. Ill even take an IOU but it depends on what you can offer for a trade skill. Im a very laid back sound engineer that works on big sound system. I bought the laser for my weekend project called
www.rackdivider.com but as I mentioned. Im limited on time as I travel and have a family now.
The machine works fantastic and can use about 9/10s of the working table. Better mirror alignment might allow for the full table size. I have general tools availble etc.
From south austin we are only 30 minutes away. From hackerspace ATX its a small hike but when their is no traffic I generally pop into downtown austin in 40 minutes.
If many are interested then I would need someone to help manage the machine time which I would also consider for trade as well.
My contact info is
We are located at 609 Deer Lake Road, Wimberley Texas 78676
The workshop is availble from 7am-7pm.
Apologies if anyone thinks this post is in poor fashion. But id rather make this offer hear rather craigslist. I will likely offer this only to ATXHS and engineering students.
Ch33rs-
